Combine IEC 61850 technology, Ethernet networking, and SEL high reliability to perform station protection, automation, and control.
Use Ethernet networks for
protection, integration, automation,
and synchrophasors via IEC 61850
and other protocols.
■ Streamline Configuration With acSELErator
Architect® SEL-5032 Software
Easily configure and document IEC 61850 communications between
devices from multiple suppliers.
■ Easily Change Relay Message Configuration
SEL relays accept Configured IED Description (CID) files to change
the configuration of the IEC 61850 messages, as called for by the
standard. Devices from other suppliers use CID files to document the
messages, but require firmware changes or nonstandard settings
methods to modify message configuration.
■ Combine Multiple Ethernet Technologies
Merge appropriate new Ethernet technologies with existing, proven
best engineering practices.
■ Decrease Maintenance Costs
Reduce initial cost and maintenance using highly reliable devices
with sophisticated self-testing and diagnostics.

Example Installations
La Venta II Substation in Mexico
Wind Park La Venta II is the world’s first substation to show
IEC 61850 in action within protective relays from a wide variety
of vendors and to prove interoperability among these devices.
In October of 2006, IBERINCO Project Manager Daniel Lancha
reported the substation’s successful energization, saying, “This
is, without any doubt, a great advancement for the integration of
control and protection systems, and for integration of the IEC 61850
international standard.”
SEL provided the majority of the relays; the RTU functions to
the SCADA system; station-level, peer-to-peer, and client-server
integration; bay-control logic, panel design, and construction;
acceptance testing, commissioning assistance, and training as a
supplier to the main contractor, IBERINCO.
First substation energized with true multisupplier integrated system using
IEC 61850—La Venta II substation, Juchitán, Oaxaca, Mexico.
Thirty-Substation Modernization Project in Brazil
This project includes the complete modernization of 30 distribution
substations belonging to Elektro Eletricidade e Serviços S.A., a large
electric distribution utility in Brazil. SEL is responsible for designing,
furnishing, and installing complete integrated systems using the
IEC 61850 suite of protocols. The first of the stations energized in
mid-2007, using GOOSE messages between devices for the following
functions:
• Breaker failure and busbar protection
• Automatic line transfer and load transfer between transformers
• Neutral-protection automatic transfer
• Automatic substation restoration
A technical paper presentation in 2008 by Elektro and SEL reported
that “after the station was energized, a transformer fault occurred.
The logic restored service to 17,000 customers in seconds,
compared to the 1.5 hours it would have taken before the new
system was installed.”
Guarujá 2, the first of 30 substations energized in a major modernization
project for Elektro Eletricidade e Serviços in Brazil.
RTU Replacement in the United States
An electric utility distribution group evaluated replacing padmounted switch remote terminal units with IEC 61850-compatible
programmable automation controllers (PACs). The group needed
various I/O types and an easily scalable solution to support the
different I/O requirements for each of three types of switches.
The system includes integration with the utility’s radio
communications network, including serial and Ethernet connections
for SCADA, remote engineering access, and peer-to-peer
communications.

communicating via high-speed Ethernet links.

Streamline Commissioning and Maintenance With Built-In Tools
New Tools for New Data Paths
Conventional protection and control systems convey control
information between devices with hard-wired contact outputs
and inputs. To diagnose problems in these hard-wired systems,
engineers or technicians measured the signal state on each wire.
In a system that uses GOOSE messages instead of hard-wiring, they
must use alternative methods to determine that control signals are
exchanged correctly.
Display GOOSE Message Status on HMI
Set the display points in SEL-2411 Programmable Automation
Controllers or relays to indicate the failures detected by
GOOSE message diagnostics. Display GOOSE bits to replace the
measurements you would use to diagnose problems in hard-wired
systems.
Without “as built” drawings to document connections and logic,
configuration revision control is even more important.
Retrieve GOOSE Reports
Quickly solve problems by capturing GOOSE reports with Telnet or
through a serial link to review and analyze configuration, network
settings, statistics, and diagnostic status points.
Easily Implement Revision Control
Increment the revision number each time project or IED
configuration is modified. Use Telnet or a serial link to retrieve ID
information from the device: The device ID shows the device type,
and the IED name includes the network name and revision number.
Easily identify configuration
version mismatches.

Quickly identify failures and error
codes with built-in diagnostics.

SEL-2725 Five-Port Ethernet Switch
Install this tough, unmanaged, five-port switch and copper-tofiber media converter to build reliable, safe Ethernet networks in
electrical substations, generating plants, industrial plants, and
other mission-critical sites. Unmanaged switches have no settings,
so it is very easy to build a small or medium-sized instrumentation
and control network using unmanaged switches.
If your local network has enough other traffic to require a managed
switch, use an SEL-2725 for each edge switch to communicate
directly with nearby IEDs, and connect them with optical fiber to a
centrally located managed switch.
The SEL-2725 withstands vibration, electrical surges, electrostatic
discharge, fast transients, and extreme temperatures. It meets
or exceeds IEEE 1613 (Class 2) and IEC 61850-3 standards for
communications networking devices in electric power substations.
The SEL-2725 drops no packets throughout this rigorous testing!
